16. Negotiating the Price (2)


A: Is there anything I can say or do to make you lower the monthly rent?

B: I doubt it, but let me hear you out.

A: If you lower the price, I will mow the lawn and trim the hedges every month.

B: No, I already have someone who does that.

A: What if I give you the first two months' rent in advance?

B: No deal. Sorry, kid.

A: Looks like I can't convince you to lower the rent.

B: I'm sorry, but that was a good effort.

A: I guess I'm going to have such a hard time paying rent.

B: Don't look so down now.

A: I can't help it.

B: Alright, you win! I'll lower the price.
